Can't find any photos of Kosar, but the Cleveland Plain Dealer doesn't make any mention of him wearing a decal in any of their articles from that period. Kosar missed 8-9 weeks with a broken ankle (beginning with week 3) and returned in late November.

File this one under weird...I was under the assumption that the Eagles were dedicating their season to Andy Reid's son, Garrett.However in no photo of Preseason Week 2 does it appear that the Eagles are still wearing the "GR" decal on their helmets.Preseason Week 1 (the introduction of the decal)

if the Eagles have ANY sense of history, they should have a 15 decal for the full season (he merits a jersey patch, but sadly, I don't see that happening). 2 of the Eagles' 3 NFL titles are owed directly to him. He scored the lone touchdown in the 1948 Blizzard Bowl against the Cardinals, and while he didn't score in the 1949 Championship Game against the Rams in Los Angeles, he ran for something like 195 yards in a steady rain.

He led the NFL rushing 3 or 4 times and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1965, the third year of inductees.

It's my personal belief that he remains the greatest Eagle of all time.

Before the arrival of Jim Brown, he was arguably the greatest running back of all time.

I believe four simple words should suffice: No chance in Hell.

I can't believe Mike Holmgren hasn't officially said that they won't have a moment of silence--he's supposedly waiting for word from the NFL. The league can't be THAT tone-deaf to ignore the reaction from fans, but then they're arrogant enough to think fans will accept scab officials.

I was wrong; they are that tone-deaf. Did they learn nothing from Bottlegate in 2001?

Just stumbled across this one looking at the Week 17 NFL PrimeTime on YouTube. During the highlights of the Seattle-Cleveland game; there was a #92 (similar to the 1986 John Tuggle memorial) in being made apparently of extra numerals on the bottom right-hand side of the helmet, which (along with Chris Berman mentioning the injuries and tragedies that soon-to-be-fired coach Tom Flores had seen that year) piqued my interest.

Did some digging and the #92 decal was in tribute to Mike Frier; a defensive lineman who played 3 games before being paralyzed from the neck down in an accident caused by teammate Lamar Smith (who was drunk and forced to pay part of his salary to Frier the remainder of his career).

Thanks Market.This was the best I could do on a screen grab. Numbers look pretty rounded - almost like da Bears' number font.

The accident occurred Dec 1, 1994.The Seahawks played 4 games after the accident...12/4 - vs Indianapolis12/11 - @ Houston12/18 - vs LA Raiders12/24 - @ ClevelandThe screen grab is from the Cleveland game.Can we now pinpoint in how many of the 3 previous games in which the 92 was worn also?

This from Google news seems to indicate that the helmet numbers would not be ready for the Dec 4 game..."… ATTENDS SEATTLE PRACTICE \ SEAHAWKS TO HONOR FRIER AT …Beacon Journal - ‎4 Dec 1994‎ - Robinson said that Seahawks' players may wear No. 92, Frier's number, on their shoes or on wristbands when they host the Indianapolis Colts today. ... "

However, players seem to be wearing other (possibly military related) patches next to the CAMO ribbon on their helmets.I've seen at least 2 different decals during pregame but can't be certain what they are.
